Fucking hell. He took a backdrop and hit his head, lost consciousness in the ring then died in hospital just an hour or so ago.

This is a tragic day for wrestling, he was an all-time great and a legend in every sense of the word. I'm still in shock at how sudden this is. He was an amazing wrestler, one of the very best of all time, and he will be sorely missed.

Shocking Death of a Japanese Legend

I am extremely saddened to report that one of the greatest in-ring workers of the modern age and the founder of Pro Wrestling NOAH, Mitsuhau Misawa died earlier this morning (tonight in Japan) following an in-ring accident stemming from a suplex.

We will have more shortly.

Wow, I have no idea what to say. I'm more shocked than sad, since I'd never actually seen a lot of Misawa's classics, but this is so sudden. He was only 46...
